Short gas pedal

[joewaiting]

Does anyone feel the pedal is short? Seems my foot slips off more than I like.

Same here.

you must not be pressing hard enough.

No problem at all. Maybe your feet are too big rather than the pedal being too small.

These ship from China, so don't expect them right away.

I'm glad I searched for "gas pedal" threads and found this, because on my drive home tonight I finally got annoyed enough with this to complain. I am the ergonomic average American male at 5'9". I've had my Maverick for 6 months now. Yea, every blue moon my foot slips off the bottom of the gas pedal. I'm sure the engineers had some logic behind the design, but I've had 50+ cars over my lifetime, and never this problem. Minor but annoying.

I'm ready to cut mine in half to get more legroom and give my shin a break and then I find this thread that talks about lengthening it. Lol.

My wife does that all of the time. If I am in the truck and she’s driving and it happens it scares the daylight out of me. I have driven small vehicles all of my life so I am used to the smaller pedals.

And here I thought it was just me having that issue.

omg yes, I thought it was just me

and the tray floor liners do not do a good job of catching debris around the gas pedal

Size 14 no problem whatsoever in the
Maverick.
Big problem in a old manual Miata.

It’s not the size of the pedal. It’s that it’s mounted too far from the floor. . From all the comments from people this is happening to….. It doesn’t need to be touching the floor, but just needs to be a little lower. It’s not leg length. It’s not shoe size. It’s not just women. It’s men too. And if you move the seat further forward to make it a bit better, you’re right on top of the steering wheel and airbag.
